What’s near Sidcup

You’ll also find Birkbeck Primary School (less than half a mile south-east) and Waring Park (under half a mile east). There is a railway station in Sidcup itself: Sidcup station. Well-known places in the area include Queen Mary's Hospital (1 mile south) and Broadway Shopping Centre (2.4 miles north-east). Open spaces near Sidcup include Summer Hill and The Tarn.
A hog roast across DA14: what to know
DA14 covers everything from Orpington, Sidcup and Bexley to 4 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan access to the garden; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.
Sidcup: After a service at Holy Trinity Church, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house. Nearby historic houses include Danson House (1.7 miles north) and Red House (1.9 miles north-east). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and gas cooking early. Light matters for a long roast: around Sidcup, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
What affects the price in DA14
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Numbers
- The journey to the venue
- The date and time of year
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
To get the best quote, tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary requirements
- Rough numbers
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.
What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a street-food van, a hog roast serves plenty of people from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook.
What your quote should include
